Here is the thing I have never understood about all the VII "popes"
Each of them has read the 3rd secret and are privy to all the other prophecies
regarding the great apostasy, yet...they gleefully participate in and advance
this apostasy.
By their concealment of the 3rd secret, the likely elimination of Sister Lucia, and
the installment of the imposter Sister Lucia, they are essentially acknowledging the
divine origin and legitimacy of these revelations.
Therefore they are deliberately damning themselves to eternal torment.
I can understand a marxist atheist becoming a lifetime actor, methodically and patiently
infiltrating an institution for the sole purpose of undermining it from within, he has no
fear of judgement. But what of these false popes, who have seen how their nefarious deeds
have already been foretold? How do they rationalize that?
How do they remain obstinate, knowing what awaits them?
